PJs in Bed

I am a fan of clothes that are so comfy that they feel like PJs. I am a fan of PJ dressing. I am a fan of wearing your real PJs in the real world. So PJ dressing in bed? Why not!

What I love about this set from Zara is that is completely versatile. I’ve worn the top with jeans and skirts (and I love that the off-the-shoulder silhouette keeps it from being too pj-like). The pants go with everything (and look great with heels, flats and sneakers). And let’s talk these shoes! They’re Brother Vellies, an ethical company who’s introducing African shoes to the fashion world. You can find more about the company and process here

I love pj dressing, I’ve shown off my take on the “trend” here, here, and here. On Instagram and in real life, you may have noticed that I’m not above wearing vintage slips, actual pjs and robes! So as much as I love this PJ-like set, I wanted to do something different for the shoot. The solution? Shoot it in bed. While most magazines, ads and pics will show you that PJ dressing workings in every setting, I like taking it back to basics. Vintage bed, vintage bedspread, art in the back ground. If your PJ dressing can look great here, imagine how great it will look at lunch, dinner, running errands, the movies and shopping!

The next time I wear this outfit, I may not have the luxury of staying in bed, but thankfully I will be as comfortable! I’d love to know: how do you do PJ dressing? In bed or in real life? Would you wear your Pjs in the world or do you stick to the “PJ like” offerings?
